This might be worth a song challenge, but probably it's more appropriate for discussion.

Motorola Designs Therapeutic Vibrating Cell Phone

Have you ever wanted to put your cell phone on vibrate mode and give yourself a back massage? Well, soon there might be a therapeutic cell phone to help you out.

Motorola submitted a patent application on April 20 for a cell phone (or "wireless device") that can vibrate to alert you of an incoming call and/or "be used for therapeutic stimulation of the various epidermal and subcutaneous areas of the wearer's body."

Why did Motorola think this was a good idea? "Because muscle stimulation is known to have therapeutic effects," the patent says.

You can set the time that your phone will vibrate and choose a pre-programmed vibration pattern. Better yet, program your own pattern, or "alternatively, [a pattern] can be downloaded to the device...from, for example, a doctor's website or in-office computer by a therapist."

But don't think that this invention can only benefit humans. Fido has pain, too. "Other applications, such as training or therapeutic purposes on animals is within the true scope and spirit of the present invention."

Now which pocket did you put that in?

Does it affect your vision?

How does it improve your communication with others?
